Features: Too busy to know where to start "living"? The young and beautiful author, Qiang Yazhen (Fion), is happy to share her experiences with everyone. The book "Just Love Life Fion's DIY Life Diary" presents seven different life concepts for each day of the week through lively and playful illustrations, exciting and vivid photography, and a light-hearted and humorous tone. Each concept includes the author's life insights and joys. Additionally, there are DIY tutorials, such as cute bird flower pots, aromatic pillowcases, patterned small buttons, and teapot insulation covers. There are also life applications like growing aromatic herbs and setting up a tropical-themed party. As long as you put in the effort, you'll discover how fun and enjoyable handmade life can be!
There are seven days in a week, and five of them are spent working. In the evenings, you're either working overtime or watching TV, and on weekends, you're sleeping like a log. How many people live this monotonous life day after day? And is this even "life"? How much time do you spend on yourself? How much time do you spend on life? According to a survey by the Swiss (ESSEC Business School), Taiwanese people work an average of 228 hours per year, ranking globally.
The hardworking Taiwanese might want to hold off on celebrating this number too soon. The problems revealed behind this figure are concerning: deaths from overwork, the impact of various stress-related syndromes on health, and the estrangement of family and parent-child relationships—all of which are reflected in our daily lives and news headlines. Therefore, Taiwanese people, who admire the motto "Strive and You Will Win," should slow down a bit and leave some time for life. Truly enjoyable life can be found in handmade crafts, soulful walks, or indulging in a romantic afternoon tea—these are all great choices.
